PALM BAY, Fla. (AP) - Authorities say a Palm Bay teen chased his
mother with a knife and beat his brother with a sugar cane because
of a change to his computer privileges.
The 15-year-old boy was on the home computer Sunday when he
discovered changes to the system made by his older brother. Police
say the teen then threw several objects and picked up a knife and a
stick of sugar cane.
The older brother and mother told police the teen pushed his
mother several times while clutching the knife.
The teen was arrested and charged with aggravated assault and
battery.
